Chicago people can never believe that anything they have could possibly exist anywhere else, or, even worse, have pre-existed the Chicago version, which is usually exactly the same or slightly worse.

You can observe this in the wild; just start doing literally anything with a person from Chicago and at some point they will stop and mention "this is nice, but in Chicago we have..." and then go on to describe the same thing.
